About
My research aims to improve society’s welfare
I am an economist interested in understanding how economic policies and individual behavior interact to shape societal outcomes. My research focuses on topics such as labor markets, inequality, and public policy design. I aim to provide evidence-based insights that can inform more effective and equitable policy decisions.
What motivates me is the potential for research to address real-world challenges—whether improving social mobility, enhancing labor market resilience, or designing smarter welfare and tax systems. I believe that rigorous economic analysis can support both policymakers and companies in creating value while contributing to a more inclusive society.
